I hope everybody has a good friend with whom he talks only of the lighter things in life and not the troublesome, profound stuff. This film is not that friend, but it is about two men subjectively at the end of their life that are this friend for each other. It is about important relationships with one another (family, friends, strangers) and oneself. These relationships form the outline of a life lived despite its inescapable death. Certainly, not every scene touches everyone the same way, but I rarely saw a movie with so much emotional backlash because of little scenes, like the conversation about riding a bike or the metaphor of the looking glass. I will remember them dearly.

despite the relative unrealistic comedy-style of the show this episode felt really real to me.

i am still not quite sure how they pulled it off. the editing felt very nice too.

quite fantastic and a good idea to bring classical music into a real and worthy context.

i would hope the real conductors would carry these ideas into the real world and would offer more interesting locations, like back-yards, train stations and rooftops...

10 out of 10 in my opinion.
